Yes, unfortunately I get this often. Mainly my left breast, stretch mark area closer to armpit. Or if there is a fuzz in my bra or a seam, it itches like crazy. Seems to come and go over the month.
I don't know anymore, so many weird symptoms over the last few years and I am only 43. I can't imagine dealing with all this for years to come.

I do get it. Itchy breast. Itchy nipples also breast skin. Sometimes flaky skin under my breast. It's been happening since I started perimenopause. 4years ago. It comes and goes.
I went to see my doctor about it but he couldn't see anything of concern. So now I just take it as a perimenopause symptoms.

yeah I get that too, probably to do with skin drying out.

I have one dry patch just under my nipple that gets so itchy, comes and goes.
If I moisturise it, it tends to go until i forget to moisturise again. I went to the doc and she said it doesn't look suspicious etc...

hello
yes i used to get this a lot, still do sometimes. itching is a menopausal symptom. i try to use unscented of everything to do with my body and .non biological washing Powder. i seem to react to most moisturizers. you can get anti itch creams, i use eurux. being too hot makes it worse, i found feeling slightly chilly made it better. i use to get it all over, worse on one leg, i thought i had scarred myself because i couldnt stop scratchy, but it eventually healed.

Hey Candy,
I've found that when skin itches it is either too dry or it is stretching out as we widen. I did not understand back when I was 40 and my lower back area was itching for like a year...then I realized my pants did not fit as usual and I had gradually widened. Not fun, but it's a fact of menopause/age for most people. Use a natural carrier oil (sweet almond, fractionated coconut, jojoba, etc) after bathing while skin is still damp. Store-bought lotions and oils are full of toxins and often irritate skin. Hugs! -K
